Granny Apple Green: Country Birdhouse Pop Up Standing Card

2024-25 blog header

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Wednesday evening for the AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop showcasing the full range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 28 – Granny Apple Green

Today I feature a fun fold card using very earthy tones this week. I find Granny Apple Green a very bright tone, so I used it by adding ink blending around the outer edges of the Country Woods designer paper layer. The Country Birdhouse stamps and coordinating dies were used to stamp the birdhouse, and two birds in Black Memento ink and I die cut the elements to embellish the card.  The base was dry embossed with my favourite Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder.

The sentiment and die cut piece is from the Unbounded Love bundle.

The birdhouse is coloured with Stampin’ Blends Combo Markers; Pecan Pie and the Natural Tones Collection of Deep Combo (SU100), Medium Combo (SU500), Medium Light (SU700) & Light Combo (SU900).

The birds and leaves are also coloured with Blends Markers; Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green & Soft Sea Foam. The perch and the bow are cut from Early Espresso cardstock. The perch is glued into the centre of the base and the bird attached with a glue dot.

You may be wondering “how do I mail it”? Well, the bottom section folds up so it fits into a C6 envelope!

Gorgeous Grape: Painted Lavender Double Door Pop Up card

2024-25 blog header

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Wednesday evening for the AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop showcasing the full range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 27 – Gorgeous Grape

Today I feature the Painted Lavender stamp set and coordinating dies with the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper (DSP) in a fun fold design.

Colour Combination - Gorgeous Grape

The front feature is stamped in second generation ink, meaning I stamped off on scrap paper before applying to the card. I also stamped this same image in full strength onto Basic White card and die cut it to add over the top on Dimensionals. The greenery is die cut in white and Pretty Peacock ink applied with a blending brush. Gorgeous Grape ink is also applied around all edges of the white layer. The lavender and butterflies have Wink of Stella on them for some sparkle.

As you open the centre panel, it reveals two beautiful Gorgeous Grape doors, dry embossed with one of the Fun Patterns Embossing Folders.

Then continue to open to find a stamped panel, with some more images from the stamp set. These are coloured with Fresh Freesia, Gorgeous Grape and Pretty Peacock, but wait, there is more. Open that panel up to reveal your message and some more gorgeous stamped images!

I haven’t put any sentiments on this card, as I’ll add the appropriate ones at the time when I know who I’m sending this to.  I cased this design from Karen Philipp, a US Demonstrator.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for inspiration using Granny Apple Green.

Fresh Freesia: Country Flowers Accordian Double Gatefold card

2024-25 blog header

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Wednesday evening for the AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop showcasing the full range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 25 – Fresh Freesia

Today we mark the halfway point through our colours at Week 25!!! Which has been your favourite so far?!!

I am featuring the Country Flowers Bundle with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper (DSP) in this fun fold design. I have used Fresh Freesia, Misty Moonlight and Summer Splash as my main colour palette.

Accordian Double Gatefold card for Fresh Freesia Colour Creations Blog Hop by Kate Morgan Stampin Up Australia 2024

Each of these pots are die cut in white card, but before removing the card, turn them over and run your stylus tip on the Take Your Pick Tool around the inside edge of the die for more definition. Then turn it over and use a Blending Brush to lightly add some ink to create that crisp white border. The flowers and leaves are stamped in Versamark ink, White WOW Emboss Powder added and melted with a Heat Tool. Colour the images using ink and a Water Painter. Around the edges, I added a light wash of Misty Moonlight to soften the harshness of the white edges.

Don’t you think that wood panelling of the Country Woods Designer Series Paper looks great in the background?!! The Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder was used on the Fresh Freesia panels.

If that is not enough room to write your message, add a White panel to the back of the card!

Heart of Christmas: Reindeer in the Winter Woods Fun Fold card

Heart of Christmas Header 2024 - 1

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Monday evening for the AWHT Heart of Christmas Blog Hop showcasing Stampin’ Up! seasonal products.

Week 4

Today I feature the Nests of Winter DSP with the Reindeer Fun bundle in this fun fold creating a winter scene.

Reindeer Fun Fancy Fold Christmas Card for Heart of Christmas Blog Hop Week 4 by Kate Morgan Stampin Up Australia 2024

I started with a 6″ x 6″ piece of the DSP and cut it down to 14.5cm in height and left the length until I had cut the 4 panels to keep theh pattern flowing. Then I cut 6cm from the right, so when the card is closed the pattern is coninuous allowing the white space to write the recipient a mesage.

Once these are glued to the card, the hinge is added. I did cut the top of this with the Frosted Forest die to have the snow hill effect, although it is hard to see now the deer are attached. Add glue to the underside of each end, fold the card closed, then place the hinge in place to ensure the card closes correctly.

Reindeer Fun Fancy Fold Christmas Card for Heart of Christmas Blog Hop Week 4 by Kate Morgan Stampin Up Australia 2024 open

The deer are stamped in Pecan Pie ink and coloured with Stampin’ Blends: SU500, SU600 & SU800. I placed some Craft White ink refill onto an acrylic block and took the Water Painter to gently dip the tip in the ink to create the spots on the deer.  You may notice a second little deer and no stamp for that one. I actually did the mirror image stamping of the small deer as I wanted it facing to the left. I did this by stamping the image directly onto my Silicone Mat, then placing some white card on top and pressing firmly to transfer the ink before colouring it.

Cherry Cobbler: Staggered Z Fold card

2024-25 blog header

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Wednesday evening for the AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop showcasing the full range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 17 – Cherry Cobbler

Today I feature the pretty Meandering Meadows Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the Online Exclusives in this Staggered Z fold card design.

It is a normal card front size, but the front panel is folded back on itself and the staggered layers added to create the feature. Lemon Lime Twist compliments the patterned papers for the matt layers. The sentiment, the die and the diecut sprigs are from the Changing Leaves bundle.

Staggered Z Fold Card for Cherry Cobbler Colour Creations Blog Hop by Kate Morgan Stampin Up Australia 2024

The sprigs are cut in white, then Cherry Cobbler ink added with a Blending Brush. On each ofthe tips, some Red Metallic Enamel Effects Basics was added. I finished off adding some gold Adhesive-backed Dragonflies & Birds, which gosoo well with these papers.

When the card is open you can see the pattern flows across to reveal the full scene. A Basic White panel is adhered to the left inside panel to write your message.

Bubble Bath: Angled Slide & Lock Card

2024-25 blog header

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Wednesday evening for the AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop showcasing the full range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 14 – Bubble Bath

Today I feature the Charming Duck Pond and Lily Pond Lane Designer Papers in this fun Slide and Lock card.

I just love these gorgeous doubled sided designer papers and this card uses only one sheet, as the reverse side is the second pattern!

Angled Slide & Lock card with Charming Duck Pond and Lily Pond Lane DSP for Bubble Bath Colour Creations blog hop by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024 closed

The circles are from the Spotlight on Nature dies and the lock channel is a die from the Something Fancy dies. The Charming Duck Pond dies created the duck and lillies. These were all cut in Basic White cardstock and coloured using Stampin’ Blends Combo Markers; Bubble Bath & Granny Apple Green.

Some Adhesive-backed Dappled Dots were added last, being careful not to interfer with the slide & lock mechanism.

The feature circle slides across to the left to open the card, such a great design.

The stamped hello on the inside is a larger stamp, but I only inked up the ‘hello’ for the inside of my card. The offcut piece from the front design didn’t go to waste by placing it along the bottom of the white insert.

This card could be used for many occasions; new baby, birthday, thinking of you, just about anything!

I was inspired by Lisa Curcio, but changed up my measurements to be suited to Metric measurements.

Card 1 – This bench fold card I made for my dad, as his birthday falls on Australia Day, a public holiday. We celebrated at lunchtime with him and he totally loved his card.  It uses the Trusty Tools dies to cut the images from the amazing patterned DSP.  How fun is that?!!!

Card 2 – this is a very simple card with just some stamping. The brushes are stamped in Smoky Slate ink and the colours are just my Stampin’ Spots dragged across the paper. Isn’t that cool?! I love the big bold sentiment from the Birthday Wishes stamp set.

CCBH: Night of Navy

2023-2024 AWH Colour Creations header

Each week some of the Art With Heart team are joining  the Colour Creations Blog Hop to bring you creative inspiration showcasing our range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 35 – Night of Navy

How are you enjoying Saleabration? It is such a generous way for Stampin’ Up! to give free product with qualifying orders to customers and demonstrators. Have you placed an order and what was your favourite SAB item?

Today I feature the Little Dreamers Bundle.  I started off with masking the images and adding some blending, but I changed my mind and decided to just add diecuts. The panel with the blending is Crumb Cake card, which helped make the night sky darker. I used Night of Navy at the top and Pretty Peacock below.  Then I took some white ink refill and placed it onto my glass mat and using a Water Painter, added some water and tapped it across the card. Some of the larger splats I needed to dab dry with a tissue.

Little Dreamers Baby Card for Night of Navy Colour Creations Blog Hop by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024

I just love this little calf sitting on some clouds under a night sky. I added this panel to a Basic White card matt then onto a Night of Navy card base. The moon and stars are diecut using the Silver & Gold Adhesive-backed Glimmer paper.

On the inside, I added some ink around the edges with what was left on my Blending Brushes.  A simple sentiment and shooting star were stamped in Night of Navy ink.

Little Dreamers Baby Card for Night of Navy Colour Creations Blog Hop by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024 inside

My second card is a fancy fold design. I’m not sure what it is called, maybe a Gatefold Pop Out card? I am using the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper and the Countryside Corners dies.

Country Inn Fancy Fold Card for Night of Navy Colour Creations Blog Hop by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024

To open the card, you simply push both sides of the card backwards and they will then pop out from behind the centre diecut feature.  To close the card, fold each of the sides in behind the diecut feature. I just love the patterned papers in this pack and I love how this showcases them perfectly. The embossed white panels use the coordinating  Countryside Blossoms Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.

Country Inn Fancy Fold Card for Night of Navy Colour Creations Blog Hop by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024 open

The sentiment is from the Throughout the Year stamp set and the foliage diecuts are from the Grove dies. Some Boho Blue 2023-2025 In Color Dots were added around the sentiment. The sentiment diecut panel is added on Dimensionals to the centre panel of the card. I adore this design and can see myself making loads of these with different DSPs.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for inspiration using Old Olive.

Card 2 features my favourite DSP piece in the pack. I didn’t want to cover it up, so I created three 3cm wide panels and glued them to some Gorgeous Grape card. Ribbon was added to the bottom with a ribbon knot. The Paper Butterfly Accent was added at the top.

Perennial Lavender DSP Triple Strip Card by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024

The ‘celebrate’ is from the Wanted to Say dies and I added some Foam Adhesive Sheet behind some Gorgeous Grape card before die cutting that layer. The Highland Heather Gliiter piece is from the Three Color Glimmer pack. I added some Adhesive Sheet on the back before die cutting. Once cut, remove the paper backing and place it on top of the larger piece. You can really see the height it gives below.
